CANDY @digital_sweetJanuary 1, 2014If you have your OWD license you can swim in the biggest tank with sharks.
Campbell BirdSeptember 20, 2014Price is a bit steep for what it is. Make sure you take your time to get your money's worth.
GRiMMieMarch 28, 2011Look for the giant fish sitting on the treasure chest @ the shipwreck. I am still unsure if it's real or not! :)
april tavenerOctober 7, 2010This is well worth the $17 a person fee. Great exhibit and sustainable in how they acquire animals.
Eric MeyersAugust 11, 2015Expensive considering you'll get through the place in one hour, but I still had fun. The manta ray pool is a highlight, and the big tank is big enough that you'll see divers in there too.
Daron YondemAugust 5, 2017If you have visited another major aquarium don't bother this one. It's small and that big shark they are using in their banners is not in there.
luis alvarezApril 22, 2010make sure you have time and a good group with you. It's not that big of a place but there is still so much to see and take in.
GawedMay 4, 2014Disappointing for the price. Small. Just a couple of types of sharks. Animal explotation at its best. Small educational efforts but that's it.... Sad.
Allan KintzApril 15, 2012Was actually a bit of a letdown - a bit smaller than expected. Didn't take long to go through at all unless you want to stare into the glass for an hour.
Kirstie PriesterMay 28, 2012Cool place, but wasn't worth the $19 dollars for a 20 minute walk through.
AJ SchusterJune 30, 2010Look around for the bowmouth guitarfish in the shipwreck. It looks like a ray that ate a shark.
